In a publicity stunt at Griffith Stadium Walter Johnson was officially named "Chief Heavy Breast" by some visiting Blackfoot Indians of Montana. A very unusual image that would appeal not only to the baseball fan but also to those interested in Native American history. Crystal clear and bold, the image looks great despite a couple of corner clips.
